Ginger Root Creates Sweet and Savory Dishes

Ginger Root from Starwest Botanicals is a great spice to keep on hand in your kitchen, because it can be used in both sweet as well as savory dishes with excellent results. The Ginger Root that we provide at Starwest Botanicals comes in many different forms, including diced, cut and sifted, powdered or whole root, as well as crystallized, kosher and organic varieties for your use.

Ginger is a carminative, expectorant and sialagogue. It should not be used by people who have gallstones.

Crystallized ginger, or Ginger that is cured with sugar is a popular way to utilize Ginger in recipes. Your morning yogurt can be enhanced with an addition of chewy granola and Ginger sprinkled on top. A Ginger cookie or Ginger snap can have layers of Ginger provided by Ginger Root powder as well as the crystallized form of the spice. Pies made from mincemeat or pumpkin may also benefit from the addition of Ginger to the recipe.

Please note: It is typical for Crystallized Ginger to appear wet, which is normal due to the crystallization process.

Stir fries offer an excellent way to incorporate Ginger Root into your recipes. Your favorite thinly sliced meat gets cooked first in hot oil, and then sliced vegetables, with the thicker or tougher ones cooked longer and the more delicate ones cooked shorter. At the vegetable cooking stage, you can add Ginger to flavor the dish, or incorporate it into any sauce used to dress the dish.

Barbecue sauces benefit from the addition of a little bit of ginger. Other sauces, such as sugar syrups, can be used for poaching fruit such as pears, and Ginger makes a lovely addition to complement the fruit flavors. Mayonnaise can be seasoned with a pinch of ginger, making it a wonderful and flavorful condiment to use with burgers.

As one of the largest suppliers of organic herbs and spices in the United states, Starwest Botanicals is pleased to directly source our organic ginger from quality producers, and then process it in house. In this way, we can ensure the finest quality product for you, as well as your complete satisfaction guaranteed.

Excellent Addition to Chinese and Japanese Cuisine

This Ginger wherever they get it has to be some of the most potent and tasty in the world. Beings I have enjoyed Chinese and Japanese food maybe a little too much the last 15 years, you taste a lot of ginger in the process. Be assured this is the only source I will get it from.

The "Crystallized Ginger Root Diced" is the best and freshest I've found. Had it been getting it from the local food store's "bulk organic area" but this is just so much better. Love it and highly recommend it.
